A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

My title might be a bit hyperbolic, but stuff like this worries me. I love to read and I love reading on a kindle. This has been going on for a while, but it has now reached absurd levels.

Judging by the article even the snippets are pure nonsense:

Black lace pajamas, very short skirt, the most important thing, now this lace pajamas are all wet.

It could be vastly improved upon with the new LLMs, but these are just complete rubbish.

It's surprising to me that they didn't at least have a human write/steal the title and blurb. You'd think that'd work better than books with obviously gibberish titles.

When your listing is written in a way only fools fall for you avoid the hassle of people that know better wanting to return things or complain. It's the same concept as email scams.
